Georges St-Pierre has been caught in the midst of a swirling quagmire of speculation ever since he said that he had some personal issues going on in his life that necessitated him “stepping away” for a little bit. He left everyone in doubt as to just exactly what that meant.

Is he retiring? Is he taking a break? Does he just need a quick vacation to recharge the batteries?

The man he won a controversial split decision over at UFC 167 recently doesn’t really care.

Johny Hendricks, in an interview with Inside MMA on Friday night said that if GSP can’t handle the heat, step out of the kitchen.

“If you can’t handle the stress of being champion, give it up,” Hendricks told Ron Kruck.
